Neuro-Otological Evaluation of 5 Cases of Relapsing Polychondritis

Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is a rare, progressive systemic inflammatory disorder that targets the cartilage and proteoglycan. While occurrence of audiovestibular symptoms has been reported in 20%–50% of cases of RP, reports of detailed vestibular assessments remain limited. This study was aimed at clarifying the characteristics of audiovestibular dysfunction in patients with RP through comprehensive neuro-otological evaluations.

Abstract

Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is a rare, progressive systemic inflammatory disorder that targets the cartilage and proteoglycan. While occurrence of audiovestibular symptoms has been reported in 20%–50% of cases of RP, reports of detailed vestibular assessments remain limited. This study was aimed at clarifying the characteristics of audiovestibular dysfunction in patients with RP through comprehensive neuro-otological evaluations.
